Eight 7‐benzyl‐3‐tert‐butyl‐1‐phenylpyrazolo[3,4‐d]oxazines,encompassing structures containing no intermolecular hydrogen bonds,and hydrogen‐bonded structures in one,two or three dimensions

7‐Benzyl‐3‐tert‐butyl‐1‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₂H₂₅N₃O, (I), and 3‐tert‐butyl‐7‐(4‐methylbenzyl)‐1‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₃H₂₇N₃O, (II), are isomorphous in the space group P2₁, and molecules are linked into chains by C—H...O hydrogen bonds. In each of 3‐tert‐butyl‐7‐(4‐methoxybenzyl)‐1‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₃H₂₇N₃O₂, (III), which has cell dimensions rather similar to those of (I) and (II), also in P2₁, and 3‐tert‐butyl‐1‐phenyl‐7‐[4‐(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₃H₂₄F₃N₃O, (IV), there are no direction‐specific interactions between the molecules. In 3‐tert‐butyl‐7‐(4‐nitrobenzyl)‐1‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O₃, (V), a combination of C—H...O and C—H...N hydrogen bonds links the molecules into complex sheets. There are no direction‐specific interactions between the molecules of 3‐tert‐butyl‐7‐(2,3‐dimethoxybenzyl)‐1‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₄H₂₉N₃O₃, (VI), but a three‐dimensional framework is formed in 3‐tert‐butyl‐7‐(3,4‐methylenedioxybenzyl)‐1‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₃H₂₅N₃O₃, (VII), by a combination of C—H...O, C—H...N and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds, while a combination of C—H...O and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the molecules of 3‐tert‐butyl‐1‐phenyl‐7‐(3,4,5‐trimethoxybenzyl)‐6,7‐dihydro‐1H,4H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d][1,3]oxazine, C₂₅H₃₁N₃O₄, (VIII), into complex sheets. In each compound, the oxazine ring adopts a half‐chair conformation, while the orientations of the pendent phenyl and tert‐butyl substituents relative to the pyrazolo[3,4‐d]oxazine unit are all very similar.     

Three novel benzothiazine‐fused triazoles as potential centrally acting muscle relaxants

The structures of the novel triazolobenzothiazines 2,4‐dihydro‐1H‐benzo[b][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐d][1,4]thiazin‐1‐one (IDPH‐791), C₉H₇N₃OS, (I), a potential muscle relaxant, its benzoyl derivative, 2‐(2‐oxo‐2‐phenylethyl)‐2,4‐dihydro‐1H‐benzo[b][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐d][1,4]thiazin‐1‐one, C₂₀H₁₇N₃O₄S, (II), and the β‐keto ester derivative, ethyl 3‐oxo‐2‐(1‐oxo‐2,4‐dihydro‐1H‐benzo[b][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐d][1,4]thiazin‐2‐yl)‐3‐phenylpropanoate, C₁₇H₁₃N₃O₂S, (III), are the first examples of benzothiazine‐fused triazoles in the crystallographic literature. The heterocyclic thiazine rings in all three structures adopt a distorted half‐chair conformation. Compound (III) exists in the trans‐β‐diketo form. Other than N—H...O hydrogen bonds in (I) forming dimers, no formal intermolecular hydrogen bonds are involved in the crystal packing of any of the three structures, which is dominated by C—H...O/N and π–π stacking interactions.     

4‐(2‐Hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine and the 2‐(2,3‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐, 2‐(3,4‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐ and 2‐(2,5‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐substituted derivatives

The 1,5‐benzodiazepine ring system exhibits a puckered boat‐like conformation for all four title compounds [4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₁H₁₈N₂O, (I), 2‐(2,3‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₃H₂₂N₂O₃, (II), 2‐(3,4‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₃H₂₂N₂O₃, (III), and 2‐(2,5‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₃H₂₂N₂O₃, (IV)]. The stereochemical correlation of the two C₆ aromatic groups with respect to the benzodiazepine ring system is pseudo‐equatorial–equatorial for compounds (I) (the phenyl group), (II) (the 2,3‐dimethoxyphenyl group) and (III) (the 3,4‐dimethoxyphenyl group), while for (IV) (the 2,5‐dimethoxyphenyl group) the system is pseudo‐axial–equatorial. An intramolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl OH group and a benzodiazepine N atom is present for all four compounds and defines a six‐membered ring, whose geometry is constant across the series. Although the molecular structures are similar, the supramolecular packing is different; compounds (I) and (IV) form chains, while (II) forms dimeric units and (III) displays a layered structure. The packing seems to depend on at least two factors: (i) the nature of the atoms defining the hydrogen bond and (ii) the number of intermolecular interactions of the types O—H...O, N—H...O, N—H...π(arene) or C—H...π(arene).     

Diastereoselective Synthesis of (Z)‐6‐(2‐Oxo‐1,2‐dihydro‐3H‐indol‐3‐ylidene)‐3,3a,9,9a‐tetrahydroimidazo[4,5‐e]thiazolo[3,2‐b]‐1,2,4‐triazin‐2,7(1H,6H)‐diones

Two efficient and diastereoselective procedures for the synthesis of (Z)‐6‐(2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydro‐3H‐indol‐3‐ylidene)‐3,3a,9,9a‐tetrahydroimidazo[4,5‐e]thiazolo[3,2‐b]‐1,2,4‐triazin‐2,7(1H,6H)‐diones by aldol‐crotonic condensation of 1,3‐dimethyl‐3a,9a‐diphenyl‐3,3a,9,9a‐tetrahydroimidazo[4,5‐e]thiazolo[3,2‐b]‐1,2,4‐triazin‐2,7(1H,6H)‐dione with isatins under acidic or basic catalysis are reported. Isomerization in (Z)‐7‐(1‐allyl‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydro‐3H‐indol‐3‐ylidene)‐1,3‐dimethyl‐3a,9a‐diphenyl‐1,3a,4,9a‐tetrahydroimidazo[4,5‐e]thiazolo[2,3‐c]‐1,2,4‐triazin‐2,8(3H,7H)‐dione was observed under basic conditions.     

A structural study of 4‐aminoantipyrine and six of its Schiff base derivatives

Six derivatives of 4‐amino‐1,5‐dimethyl‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐3‐one (4‐aminoantipyrine), C₁₁H₁₃N₃O, (I), have been synthesized and structurally characterized to investigate the changes in the observed hydrogen‐bonding motifs compared to the original 4‐aminoantipyrine. The derivatives were synthesized from the reactions of 4‐aminoantipyrine with various aldehyde‐, ketone‐ and ester‐containing molecules, producing (Z)‐methyl 3‐[(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)amino]but‐2‐enoate, C₁₆H₁₉N₃O₃, (II), (Z)‐ethyl 3‐[(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)amino]but‐2‐enoate, C₁₇H₂₁N₃O₃, (III), ethyl 2‐[(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)amino]cyclohex‐1‐enecarboxylate, C₂₀H₂₅N₃O₃, (IV), (Z)‐ethyl 3‐[(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)amino]‐3‐phenylacrylate, C₂₂H₂₃N₃O₃, (V), 2‐cyano‐N‐(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)acetamide, C₁₄H₁₄N₄O₂, (VI), and (E)‐methyl 4‐{[(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)amino]methyl}benzoate, C₂₀H₁₉N₃O₃, (VII). The asymmetric units of all these compounds have one molecule on a general position. The hydrogen bonding in (I) forms chains of molecules via intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds around a crystallographic sixfold screw axis. In contrast, the formation of enamines for all derived compounds except (VII) favours the formation of a six‐membered intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen‐bonded ring in (II)–(V) and an intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond in (VI), whereas there is an intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond in the structure of imine (VII). All the reported compounds, except for (II), feature π–π interactions, while C—H...π interactions are observed in (II), C—H...O interactions are observed in (I), (III), (V) and (VI), and a C—O...π interaction is observed in (II).     

Different molecular conformations co‐exist in each of three 2‐aryl‐N‐(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)acetamides: hydrogen bonding in zero,one and two dimensions

4‐Antipyrine [4‐amino‐1,5‐dimethyl‐2‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐3(2H)‐one] and its derivatives exhibit a range of biological activities, including analgesic, antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory, and new examples are always of potential interest and value. 2‐(4‐Chlorophenyl)‐N‐(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)acetamide, C₁₉H₁₈ClN₃O₂, (I), crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group P, whereas its positional isomer 2‐(2‐chlorophenyl)‐N‐(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)acetamide, (II), crystallizes with Z′ = 1 in the space group C2/c; the molecules of (II) are disordered over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies of 0.6020 (18) and 0.3980 (18). The two independent molecules of (I) adopt different molecular conformations, as do the two disorder components in (II), where the 2‐chlorophenyl substituents adopt different orientations. The molecules of (I) are linked by a combination of N—H…O and C—H…O hydrogen bonds to form centrosymmetric four‐molecule aggregates, while those of (II) are linked by the same types of hydrogen bonds forming sheets. The related compound N‐(1,5‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)‐2‐(3‐methoxyphenyl)acetamide, C₂₀H₂₁N₃O₃, (III), is isomorphous with (I) but not strictly isostructural; again the two independent molecules adopt different molecular conformations, and the molecules are linked by N—H…O and C—H…O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons. Comparisons are made with some related structures, indicating that a hydrogen‐bonded R₂²(10) ring is the common structural motif.     

6‐(2‐Fluorobenzylidene)‐2‐[1‐(2‐fluoro‐4‐biphenyl)ethyl]thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazol‐5(6H)‐one

The title compound, C₂₅H₁₇F₂N₃OS, was synthesized from 6‐(benzyl­idene)­thia­zolo­[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazol‐5(6H)‐one. The fused thia­zolo­[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazole system is essentially planar, and bifurcated C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯F interactions are present between mol­ecules.     

Structures of benzoxazine‐fused triazoles as potential diuretic agents

6,8‐Dinitro‐2,4‐dihydro‐1H‐benzo[b][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐d][1,4]oxazin‐1‐one, C₉H₅N₅O₆, (I), a potential diuretic, and its acetylacetone derivative (E)‐2‐(2‐hydroxy‐4‐oxopent‐2‐en‐3‐yl)‐6,8‐dinitro‐2,4‐dihydro‐1H‐benzo[b][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐d][1,4]oxazin‐1‐one, C₁₄H₁₁N₅O₈, (II), both crystallize from methanol but in centrosymmetric and noncentrosymmetric space groups, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of crystal structures of benzoxazine–triazole fused systems. The acetylacetone group in (II) exists as the keto–enol tautomer and is oriented perpendicular to the triazol‐3‐one ring. Of the two nitro groups present, one is rotated significantly less than the other in both structures. The oxazine ring adopts a screw‐boat conformation in (II), whereas it is almost planar in (I). N—H...N and N—H...O hydrogen bonds form centrosymmetric dimers in (I), while C—H...O interactions associate the molecules into helical columns in (II).     

4‐Amino‐3‐methyl‐6‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one (metamitron) and 4‐amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one (isometamitron)

The title structures, both C₁₀H₁₀N₄O, are substitutional isomers. The N—N bond lengths are longer and the C=N bond lengths are shorter by ca 0.025 Å than the respective average values in the C=N—N=C group of asymmetric triazines; the assessed respective bond orders are 1.3 and 1.7. There are N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds in both structures, with 4‐­amino‐3‐methyl‐6‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one containing a rare bifurcated N—H⋯N,N hydrogen bond. The structures differ in their mol­ecular stacking and the hydrogen‐bonding patterns.     

Utilization of cleavage of the [1]benzofuro[2,3‐e][1,2,4]triazine ring for the synthesis of oxygen,nitrogen and sulfur derivatives of [1,2,4]triazine

A series of 6‐azacytosines 4a‐4k and 5a‐5c were prepared by nucleophilic cleavage of furan ring of [1]benzofuro[2,3‐e][1,2,4]triazine derivative 1 . Some of them were used for the preparation of derivatives of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐d][1,2,4]triazine ( 6a‐6d ) and tetrazolo[1,5‐d][1,2,4]triazine (7). The reaction of 1 with hydrogen sulfide afforded the corresponding 6‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐5‐thioxo‐4,5‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐tri‐azin‐3(2H)‐one ( 8 ), while with hydrogen selenide 6‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐triazin‐3(2H)‐one ( 9 ) was formed. The prepared compounds were tested for biological activity.     

Four‐ and five‐coordinate copper(II) complexes with N‐(4,4‐diphenyl‐5‐oxo‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐imidazol‐2‐yl)glycine

The two title mononuclear compounds are four‐coordinate bis[N‐(5‐oxo‐4,4‐diphenyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐imidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)glycinato]copper(II) dimethylformamide disolvate, [Cu(C₁₇H₁₄N₃O₃)₂]·2C₃H₇NO, (I), and five‐coordinate aquabis[N‐(5‐oxo‐4,4‐diphenyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐imidazolidin‐2‐ylidene)glycinato]copper(II) dimethylformamide disolvate, [Cu(C₁₇H₁₄N₃O₃)₂(H₂O)]·2C₃H₇NO, (II). In (I), the Cu^II ion lies on an inversion centre with one‐half of the complex molecule in the asymmetric unit, while in (II) there are two independent ligand molecules in the asymmetric unit, with the Cu^II ion and coordinated water molecule located on a general position. In both crystal structures, the complex molecules assemble in ribbons via N—H...O hydrogen‐bond networks.     

2,3‐Dihydro‐1,3‐benzothiazol‐2‐iminium monohydrogen sulfate and 2‐iminio‐2,3‐dihydro‐1,3‐benzothiazole‐6‐sulfonate: a combined structural and theoretical study

The 2‐aminobenzothiazole sulfonation intermediate 2,3‐dihydro‐1,3‐benzothiazol‐2‐iminium monohydrogen sulfate, C₇H₇N₂S⁺·HSO₄⁻, (I), and the final product 2‐iminio‐2,3‐dihydro‐1,3‐benzothiazole‐6‐sulfonate, C₇H₆N₂O₃S₂, (II), both have the endocyclic N atom protonated; compound (I) exists as an ion pair and (II) forms a zwitterion. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds are seen in both structures, with bonding energy (calculated on the basis of density functional theory) ranging from 1.06 to 14.15 kcal mol⁻¹. Hydrogen bonding in (I) and (II) creates DDDD and C(8)C(9)C(9) first‐level graph sets, respectively. Face‐to‐face stacking interactions are observed in both (I) and (II), but they are extremely weak.     

2‐[(E)‐(4‐Chloro­phenyl)­methyl­ene­amino]‐N‐(X‐methyl­phenyl)‐4,5,6,7‐tetra­hydro‐1‐benzo­thio­phene‐3‐carbox­amide,where X = 2 and 3

The title compounds, both C₂₃H₂₁ClN₂OS, are isomeric, with (I) and (II) being the N‐3‐methyl­phenyl and N‐2‐methyl­phenyl derivatives, respectively. The dihedral angle between the 4‐chloro­phenyl group and the thio­phene ring in (II) [38.1 (1)°] is larger than that in (I) [7.1 (1)°], indicating steric repulsion between the chloro­phenyl and o‐toluidine groups in (II). In both compounds, an intramolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond forms a pseudo‐six‐membered ring, thus locking the molecular conformation. In the crystal structures, mol­ecules are connected via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the b axis in (I) and along the c axis in (II). Intermolecular C—H⋯O/S and π–π interactions are also observed in (II), but not in (I).     

Eth­yl 5‐isoprop­oxy‐4‐meth­yl‐β‐carboline‐3‐carboxyl­ate: structural determinants of benzodiazepine‐receptor antagonism

Mol­ecules of the title compound, C₁₈H₂₀N₂O₃, are linked into ribbons by N—H·O and N—H·N hydrogen bonds. Stereochemical comparison with Ro 15‐1788 (viz. eth­yl 8‐fluoro‐5,6‐dihydro‐5‐meth­yl‐6‐oxo‐4H‐imidazo[1,5‐a][1,4]benzodiazepine‐3‐carboxyl­ate) has identified three electronegative N and O atoms in the mol­ecule as features likely to be responsible for its activity as a benzodiazepine‐receptor antagonist.     

4,6‐Dimethyl‐2‐[(4‐phenylpiperidin‐1‐yl)methyl]isothiazolo[5,4‐b]pyridin‐3(2H)‐one and 4,6‐dimethyl‐2‐[(4‐phenyl‐1,2,3,6‐tetrahydropyridin‐1‐yl)methyl]isothiazolo[5,4‐b]pyridin‐3(2H)‐one

In the crystal structures of the title compounds, C₂₀H₂₃N₃OS, (II), and C₂₀H₂₁N₃OS, (III), significant differences occur in the conformation of, respectively, the phenylpiperidine and phenyltetrahydropyridine substituents at the 2‐position of the isothiazolopyridine system. The piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation, while the tetrahydropyridine ring assumes a half‐chair form. The phenylpiperidine and phenyltetrahydropyridine fragments exhibit different conformations resulting from the steric and conjugation effects in the phenyl ring, respectively. Theoretical calculations show that both conformations are energetically stable and correspond to a minimum of energy for the analyzed systems. The molecular packing in (II) is influenced by π–π interactions of the isothiazolopyridine systems, with a shortest centroid‐to‐centroid separation of 3.5843 (11) Å between pyridine rings. In the crystal structure of (III), the molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions.     

Conversion of 3‐amino‐4‐arylamino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐ones to 1‐arylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐ones: synthesis,spectroscopic characterization and the structures of four products and one ring‐opened derivative

An efficient synthesis of 1‐arylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐ones, involving the diazotization of 3‐amino‐4‐arylamino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐ones in weakly acidic solution, has been developed and the spectroscopic characterization and crystal structures of four examples are reported. The molecules of 1‐phenylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₅H₉N₃O₂, (I), are linked into sheets by a combination of C—H…N and C—H…O hydrogen bonds, while the structures of 1‐(2‐methylphenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₆H₁₁N₃O₂, (II), and 1‐(3‐chlorophenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₅H₈ClN₃O₂, (III), each contain just one hydrogen bond which links the molecules into simple chains, which are further linked into sheets by π‐stacking interactions in (II) but not in (III). In the structure of 1‐(4‐chlorophenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, (IV), isomeric with (III), a combination of C—H…O and C—H…π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the molecules into sheets. When compound (II) was exposed to a strong acid in methanol, quantitative conversion occurred to give the ring‐opened transesterification product methyl 2‐[4‐hydroxy‐1‐(2‐methylphenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐5‐yl]benzoate, C₁₇H₁₅N₃O₃, (V), where the molecules are linked by paired O—H…O hydrogen bonds to form centrosymmetric dimers.     

Synthesis of dispiro[oxindole‐pyrrolidine]‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazines by 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition

The 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of an azomethine ylide generated by a decarboxylative route from sarcosine and isatin to 7‐arylmethylidene‐3‐aryl‐3,4‐dihydro‐2H‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazin‐6(7H)‐ones afforded novel dispiro[oxindole‐pyrrolidine]‐thiazolo[3,2‐a][1,3,5]triazines in moderate yields. The structures of the products were determined and characterized thoroughly by NMR, MS, IR, and elemental analysis. The results of experiment indicated that this 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition proceeded with high stereoselectivity and regioselectivity. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).     

5‐Acetyl‐2‐amino‐6‐methyl‐4‐phenyl‐4H‐pyran‐3‐carbonitrile and 2‐amino‐5‐benzoyl‐6‐methyl‐4‐phenyl‐4H‐pyran‐3‐carbonitrile acetonitrile solvate

The syntheses, X‐ray structural investigations and calculations of the conformational preferences of the carbonyl substituent with respect to the pyran ring have been carried out for the two title compounds, viz. C₁₅H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), and C₂₀H₁₆N₂O₂·C₂H₃N, (III), respectively. In both mol­ecules, the heterocyclic ring adopts a flattened boat conformation. In (II), the carbonyl group and a double bond of the heterocyclic ring are syn, but in (III) they are anti. The carbonyl group forms a short contact with a methyl group H atom in (II). The dihedral angles between the pseudo‐axial phenyl substituent and the flat part of the pyran ring are 92.7 (1) and 93.2 (1)° in (II) and (III), respectively. In the crystal structure of (II), inter­molecular N—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into a sheet along the (103) plane, while in (III), they link the mol­ecules into ribbons along the a axis.     

Supramolecular hydrogen‐bonded hexamers in two 5‐aryl‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1,6,7,8‐tetra­hydro­pyrazolo­[3,4‐b][1,4]­diazepines

In both title compounds, i.e. 3‐methyl‐1,5‐di­phenyl‐1,6,7,8‐tetra­hydro­pyrazolo­[3,4‐b][1,4]­diazepine, C₁₉H₁₈N₄, (I), and 5‐(4‐chloro­phenyl)‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1,6,7,8‐tetra­hydro­pyra­zolo­[3,4‐b][1,4]­diazepine, C₁₉H₁₇ClN₄, (II), an N—H?N hydrogen bond links six mol­ecules to form an R(30) ring. Compound (I) crystallizes in the R space group and (II) crystallizes in P with three mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The mol­ecule of (I) contains a disordered seven‐membered ring.
